I don’t know if all the dots connect. I see dots all over the place. Sometimes you see a lot of dots when you are straining to see. I have to consider if I know what I know, or I only think I know something. I have to consider this because I am aware of many people who know things that are not so. The same could be true of me, so I have to be careful when it comes to what I know. I tell myself that what I have is a massive amount of circumstantial evidence that flows in on the extended spokes that connect from all around the circumference into the central hub where, supposedly, information is processed.

Many times I have thought about what I know and how it might be better, for me, if I didn’t know it. That, unfortunately, is a lot like not seeing something coming; not wanting to see it coming because it is disturbing …but it is still coming. If you know something is coming, you can try to make arrangements to avoid it. If you don’t know that it is coming, the thought is unlikely to enter your mind. What does one do?
